RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted March 30, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted March 30, 2020 Keep the top line remarks coming chaps and in that way maybe we will normalise this whole weirdness (and I am not talking about DCC). Mr Fried Small Rodents…. that syndrome about kits is very common. How do I know this? Phil 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst the local scumbags were fighting over toilet rolls in Tesco I was panic buying two Bogie Bolster E kits and a Borail as the wagon stash was getting a bit depleted. I think there were only three Catfish, a Mica B which is to become a Tevan if I can ever find out what colour it would be in 1957-1960 and a Plate which is to be built as an S&T Winkle. Not sure what I'm going to do for coach building after I've put the Stones Ventilators in the LMS Vestibule Set and finished off the Gresley TO. There are several potential donors in a box under the layout (Ambulance Car to LMS BG and GWR Siphon G conversions plus two Palethorpes 50' Sausage Vans already planned) plus some more Gresley bits waiting a suitable donors (local toy fair cancelled so delay there) and two NPCCS kits to sort out. With that lot I could do with Social Distancing continuing for at least a year, even before I do something completely radical and actually finish the layout. 4 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gerbil-Fritters Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Are Fritters fried? When I were a lad we used to fry Faggots, so I suppose anything is possible. 3 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold colin penfold Posted March 30, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 30, 2020 Yum! I managed to panic buy a pack of them when trying to stock my freezer for self-isolation. Looking forward to them. We used to have them a fair bit when my son was younger but we had to call them English meatballs and hide the pack because we knew he wouldn't eat faggots.... 1 1 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted March 31, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted March 31, 2020 'Ordinary' Haggis is off menu for us GF persons, as are so many other products where, for some reason, they have to stuff Barley Malt Extract or other crap in the stuff. Mars Bars have Barley Malt Extract in...……..pah! As for Fritters being fried, I thought they were battered things like years ago at School they used to do Spam Fritters. Never liked that much and it was probably that the batter was a bit greasy and I was probably reacting to stuff like that years before I were diagnosed. Other stuff like Black Pudding and even Tinned Tomatoes need to be checked for 'banned substances). PITA really. Lack of effort here at Duck Towers at the moment; I need to get a grip.

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 31, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 31, 2020 Lack of effort here too, cos we're able to work from home ( shouldn't really complain but I'd rather be modelling). 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
